Indeed, it does:
# ldd libdispatch.so
linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fff6fde6000)
libkqueue.so => not found
librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0x00007fb4d09bd000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fb4d064d000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007fb4d0431000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fb4d0e05000)

But $(KQUEUE_LIBS) does not only contain -lkqueue but also -L<path_to_libkqueue>
which I need to link the application, since defaults of /lib,/usr/lib,... do not
suffice, because I installed to a non-standard prefix.

ciao,
